I would just like to say that, as Gary does, we think it's a critical role to have because there is a lot of really great work going out from the literacy practitioner working on the ground in northern, eastern, or central Canada. We need to have someone who can unite us, someone who can bring the great work together. We're doing a bit of that as a collection of organizations with the Financial Literacy Action Group, but we need more. We need to have all of us united towards financial literacy, and I think including this in the bill is important, because it allows for this to be for the long term. It's committing to this process, and we really think that's important.
